Weight: 174.2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I woke up this morning expecting--hoping--to see 175 point something... but to wake up and see 174.2?! I couldn't speak for a few minutes!!! This thing is amazing.
I took my drops right when I woke up, ate some strawberries (I was going to save them for lunch, but I felt sick so needed to eat them), and then I had chicken and spinach for lunch. I decided that the spinach is not very appetizing anymore, so I'm going to switch veggies next week. The cucumber for dinner each night is great, though. I love slicing them thin and then eating them like "munchies." Oh, and I like my cucumbers with salt, and I love that this diet allows that!
I will take my next dose of drops when I feel hungry again this afternoon (probably after my 2 o'clock class)--and thanks for the good advice, Jess! I was going to bed with leg and stomach pain but taking my drops when I feel hungry versus right before I eat makes more sense! I went to bed full and woke up full :)
It's sooo hard to believe that this is the fourth day already. I feel like it will become easier as time goes by because it'll be a natural routine. I don't see how anyone could let themselves cheat on this diet. It just feels physically impossible to me. It's a set amount of days (40) and dealing with a hormone is more serious.
Oh, I also decided this morning after seeing 174 that IF I were to actually reach my goal of 145 BEFORE the 40 days are over, I'm going to stop. I read in my HCG guide that 35 pounds is the most that the doctors allowed patients to lose in clinicals. This was not always the case, but since 145 has been a longtime goal (years) of mine, I decided I'm going to reward myself by then going into Phase 3. I'll be only 15 pounds from my overall goal by then, and I will either lose that on my own or do HCG once more over the summer.
Who knows, maybe I'll barely clear the 160s or 150s by the time this is over. I still have my period coming, and I'm mentally preparing myself for the weight loss to slow down then. I'm ecstatic to get ahead of the game for now, though.
If I see 173 or 172 tomorrow I may faint! I haven't been these weights since last August (2010). I lost 30 pounds last year and gained ten back over the past 8 months. I am amazed that this HCG diet is going to allow me to lose these 10 pounds in 10 days after trying MONTHS to get them off.
Oh, and I'm going to get that haircut tomorrow :) What style to choose...
